Bay windows:Bay windows are an old classic and have been chosen down the years for their large, spacious panes that afford excellent lighting and give good and multiple views from their many angles. Bay windows are ideal for family rooms, living and sitting rooms and anywhere where a feeling of openness and brightness is important. Bay windows project outside the external wall of the room. Such a window isprovided to get an increased area of openĀing for admitting greater light and air. They also provide extra space in the room, and improve the overall appearance of the room.
Bow windowis a variation of the bay window. Both types of window installations project outward from the flat surface of a wall, providing extra space and light. The bow window is so named because it has a slightly curved shape, instead of the more angled shape of the bay window, and it looks like the curve of a drawn bow. Typically three to six panels of glass are used, usually more panels with less width when the glass is not curved.
